United's New Debit Card: Miles on Everyday Spending, Really?
Published on November 6, 2025, 9:02 PM
United Airlines is now offering a debit card that lets you earn MileagePlus miles on everyday purchases! This is big news for United loyalists who might not qualify for credit cards or just prefer using a debit card. You can earn miles on all your spending, just like you would with a credit card, which is a neat way to boost your mileage balance without racking up credit card debt.
The card comes with a welcome bonus (always a plus!), and it earns miles on purchases, although the exact earning rate wasn't specified in the article. For frequent United flyers, this could be an easy way to passively earn miles on regular expenses like groceries and gas, getting you closer to that dream award flight faster. It's worth checking out the full details on United's website to see if the earning rates and any associated fees make sense for your spending habits.
